I've come to the sad realization that too often in our world, we are told we have to respond in a certain way (and that is often true in certain situations). However, don't be fooled into believing that everyone in the world wants you to just spit back information like a robot. I am not one of those people. I care about uniqueness. I care about originality. I care about depth. That is why I try to give you choices.
At this point in the year, I want to give you even more opportunities to express yourself. I don't want to just teach you rules and definitions so that you can memorize them and move on. I want to teach you how to apply what we're learning to the real world so that you can develop your own interests in different topics. I want you to start making your own connections. I want to give you a lens to look through, but I don't want to tell you what to see. I'm equally interested in learning from you.
This is one of the reasons I want you to view your IBP not as a chore but as an opportunity. Don't waste it!
